When the Sound of Music song lists its “favorite things”, did you realize “warm mittens” are mentioned in the second line? The second line! When this song was penned, warm handwear was tops on the list in the songwriter’s mind. Maybe that’s common. Burton team rider Gabi Viteri thinks so, since she considers the women’s Burton Favorite Leather Glove to be a must-have. Who wouldn’t with a Gnar Guard genuine leather shell and palm, waterproof/breathable DRYRIDE Insane Membrane™, and Thermacore™ insulation to keep it toasty? Add the old school styling and wrist-sealing warmth of a knit cuff and the riders all agree, this is one glove with lots to love.

I am a loyal fan of these gloves and have bought several pair over the last 10 years. They are comfy, functional and durable. When you wear them as much as I do, they do have a lifespan. Size up in these gloves. I have been buying them in XL's although I am a women's medium in all other outerwear. Maybe their fit models are carnies?
